Summary

This study looks at how being obese changes your DNA and harms blood vessels. Researchers want to see if 12 weeks of aerobic exercise can reverse these changes. 80 adults scheduled for weight-loss surgery will take part. The goal is to understand the body's inner workings, not to test a new treatment.
